Figure 2

Effect of Andrographolide on alveolar bone resorption of left and right mandibles induced by Pg. Blue is left mandible; red is right mandible. Group (1) vehicle; Group (2) vehicle and Pg; Group (3) AND 10 mg/kg; Group (4) AND 20 mg/kg. Statistical analysis of the data was carried out using one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) and Tukey’s post hoc test for average comparison on SPSS 18.0. Mean values ± SEM ( ) were used. Significance was defined as a and b ( ) where a compared to G1 and b compared to G2. Values, which are not struck, do not have significant difference compared to G2.
